Can You Ever Forgive Me? (15) at the RBCFT

The multi-award winning comedy drama is coming to the RBCFT. Ccelebrity biographer Lee Israel (Melissa McCarthy) makes her living profiling the likes of Katharine Hepburn, Tallulah Bankhead and Estee Lauder. When Lee is no longer able to get published because she has fallen out of step with current tastes, she turns her art form to deception, abetted by her loyal friend Jack (brilliantly played by Richard E. Grant).
"Melissa McCarthy is magnificent as an odious literary forger abetted by Richard E Grant as her lounge-lizard drinking buddy" ***** The Guardian
